      You have an AMAZING trail and scenery setup. Your shop!! Your shop was helpful for me in setting up one in a building I had on my property in Alvin Tx. Unfortunately we lost that place in Hurricane Harvey but it will be replaced after I find a place FAR from the coast! LOL
      Again I will use your shop as a general layout for the next one.
      It's like reading a post from a Rock Star. THANK YOU for your channel!

    Fitst thing I thought,
    " Somewhere else in this yard there is a amazing garden rail road" . Watched twice and I didn't see one. But if you ever expand or do some different terrain in the future might find some large scale ties and rail and make a section of trail an abandoned railroad bed. There are folks on here lamenting the lack of funds and talent. This is so well done and it really looks like a lot of fun! But I imagine that if you look much of it costs very little. I bet much of the wood was cut off and from that scrap wood pile that is always a next time to the dump thing. The local garden center for the landscaping. The big rocks and the arrangements of smaller ones the real sweat equity.
    This is SMART ART with a plan a little sweat and a modest budget a couple bags of cement and wood that nobody wanted spread over a little time. I had a race track in my backyard in Colorado, granted a big backyard but I also had the Mayor's back deck looking into my backyard. So the two high banked turns became strawberry patches and the straights were the paths my two big dummy dogs had beat into hard pan. Right along the back patio it was red brick on tamped sand so they were tight and smooth. I'm sure the Mayor didn't know what I was doing but when the co-workers and all their kids showed up and barbacue fired up and RC-10s and Kyosho Optimas started winging around that track Mayor Kevin would sit on his deck and watch. It was some work and it took a couple of weeks but it looked like it was just garden paths around a big lawn. On summer weekends it became a fast dirt oval with a red brick strip like Indy. Last time I looked at Google Earth you could still see it.
    300 block of Centennial Drive in Bennett Colorado.
    Does the town of Smiggin's Folly and the camper have lights?
    That would look so good at night with some crawlers with light bars etc. And is that a skeleton in the one rock slide looking area?
